Howdy Barry,

Ya' know, its kinda strange that here recently in the past few months, you will mention an aircraft that I have just purchased. My house is beginning to look like a small hobby shop so I guess it is inevitable that someone would mention something I purchase, but with you, it seems that you bring up a plane usually the day after I buy it.
In this case, I purchased airfix's 1:72 scale Lockheed U2 A/C/D spyplane just yesterday.

The owner of the hobby shop I frequent has decided that he is going to buy upa as many airfix products as he can....while he can. He says they are selling like "hotcakes".
He just bought every color of Humbrol paint he didnt have which he said completes his inventory of the paints that Humbrol offered.
Anyway, I just thought it was strange that you would bring up the U2 since I had just purchased it.
In addition to the U2, I bought a few more kits. Testors 1:48th scale GEE BEE RACER, Minicrafts (gawd I hate dealing with them again) 1:48th scale Cessna 172 Skyhawk, and Hobby crafts 1:48th scale P-26 Peashooter.

Have a good day,

Greg
